The Prankster has been informed that SIP Parking have failed to pay a CCJ. The CCJ was awarded against them when they started a claim against a motorist, but failed to turn up in court once the motorist filed a robust defence.
The judge therefore struck out the claim and ordered the claimant to pay for the loss of earnings of the defendant.

SIP Parking failed to pay the charge by the 14 April deadline, and are still in default. The motorist contacted the appropriate ATA, The Independent Parking Committee, to see if they wanted to take action against this operator bringing the Parking Industry into disrepute.
However, the IPC were not interested and to date have taken no remedial action.
The Prankster understands The British Parking Association take a more robust attitude to parking companies who fail to pay CCJs, and require their members to pay them. The Prankster therefore recommends any parking company who wish to ignore judges applies to join the IPC, where they will apparently be in good company.
Happy Parking
